Excellent reading.
Although this book may be aimed at younger readers I, a much older person, found it very enjoyable. It is very well written and the story line keeps leading the reader on to find court what happens next. I look forward to the next book for the continuation of the story. The first book, Boxcar Baby, was just as enthralling. I would recommend both books to readers of any age.
